#7 Missouri

Not only is Missouri attracting retirees as a possible forever home for their golden years, but it is also one of the most sought-after destinations for early retirement. Retirees that live in this state only shell out about $8,000 when it comes to housing costs, and the food bill is one of the most budget-friendly ones out there, costing them less than $4,000.

Adding everything up, you would end up with a cost per year of around $42,726, which definitely makes the Show-me state definitely worthy of being taken into consideration! You can even take a short trip to check it out before seriously starting to consider it.
